I cannot even begin to describe what I have been doing lately. It definitely does not include working out. I was the cheer coach for my school and it totally dominated my life! We practiced everyday until 5PM. By the time I left school it would be close to 6 and I was exhausted! I barely made it for any workouts. Plus, it is dark and cold. Wisconsin sucks for running.

Then, game nights would set me back until 7:30. So, I definitely wasn't working out. And when I did, I couldn't sleep because I was so wired from working out.

I also was the co-founder of the Wilmot Band Festival so that happened two weeks ago and now my life is slightlyless stressful.

Now, I am the volleyball coach BUT we practice from 5-6:30 so I CAN RUN AFTER SCHOOL! WOOOO!!!

Today, I am conquering 4 miles, but I am also fasting today so I have to be careful. I also have to go to church after volleyball, so I won't get home until 8:30. That is a long long time to fast.

Anyways, I am giving up chocolate, dessert, ANYTIME that I have become addicted to with all my stress. I took some measurements this morning and am hoping to lose an inch or so in certain areas (ahem-abs, hips, wasit).

So, I'm back to blogging because I want to track what I ate for the day. Today includes:

a handful of almonds (plain)
an apple
baked potato with a pinch of cheese, broccolie and corn
blueberries and grapes

I'm praying Dave will get hickory smoked salmon from gooseberries for dinner!

January is almost over and I have not been so great at working out. Between cheerleading (practice or a game or a tournament EVERY DAY) and band directing, I am exhausted. My workouts have definitely slipped. Yesterday, I was able to get a good 5 miler in. I miss long run Saturdays.

The constant cold/snow here is killing me. But, after a torturous dental appointment THIS Thursday, I'm hoping on a plane at night to fly to Phoenix to meet D's brother, sister in law and niece. We will be there until Sunday. You better believe I am running outside Fri-Sat-and Sun before we board the plane!
